If you were GM, how would you use our that first pick in round 2?

[Brooklyn 3.0]

O-lineman

Penix will not be there at #33 lol.

Penix is a lefty, so Ickey would be on his front side an Moton on his blindside.  Without shuffling the cards, this could be a quick fix if only we can solidify the guard positions.

Ickey is the fat fug I use to kick in the azz in grade school...

we can't afford to water down our picks.  Draft BPA on offense in the 2nd.  It will essentially be on par with a low end 1st round pick

WR or OL. It’s absolutely not going to be a QB lol

we got Gamecock fans advocating for a dude that went 0-2 vs the ACC this year....and finished the season looking like a bad Bryce Young in the NFL.   All Spencer Rattler would do is sit behind Bryce Young.    We definitely don't need to waste the 33rd pick in the draft on that.  A good GM should be able to draft legit offensive skill talent there.

O-line.  Anyone saying qb, get it out of your head, young will start next year, after that maybe, but he's still what tepper views as the building block.  Receiver would also be good.  Also, everyone keeps saying the draft is deep at certain positions, but always remember, it requires actually HITTING on those picks.  We took cade mays and deonte brown late because OGs are supposed to be had late in drafts...well we whiffed and were still at square 1.  It only helps if we hit on the picks and I have no confidence in that.

Scott Fitterer:  good news! We got 7 7th round picks now!!!

[Jaxel]

Jaydon Daniels, run the card up.

[Fright]

Can't go another season w/ BY as the only viable option... if you don't want to hurt his ego/tiny brain by playing a vet in Ginger man and benching him, then you need to bring in a rookie to compete and possibly earn the QB1 position. Kinda like the opposite route of what we did w/ Clausen and Cam.

It will be interesting to follow with Penix Jr. At this time last year Will Levis was a top 10 pick. Penix Jr will be 24 (I think) at the time of the draft…

Weak class bro.  We wait and wait and wait and wait and when we decide we can't wait anymore, we  draft a guy in a bad draft class for that position out of desperation.  It's the Panther way.

Yep. La Porta went 2 picks before the Rams 2nd and 5 picks before Mingo. Kincaid was the top TE and he only went 9 before La Porta. Trading up should have been done for a TE this past draft instead of reaching on DJ Johnson.

We went Mingo in a not as good WR class because we traded away Moore. Fitterer has been just like Hurney 2.0. Don’t take BPA or draft deep positions to get better overall draft value. Instead, draft to weakness and reach for needs with trade ups to make sure you get the least draft value you can.

QB, WR, OL,DL one of those positions.

No way Tepper picks a QB in any round. He’s all in on Bryce.

Great topic, but the level of reading comprehension is rough. OP asked what you would do. The number of answers saying “Panthers would never do that…”.
